They threat- ened'only in the fifth when after two were out they had men on second and third Evans forced Ed- gar to ground sharply to Graham Strathroy nicked Doug Bartliff for nine hits, one of them for ex- tra bases, but eight Colt Y,errors was the difference between the two clubs. Manager Hugh Hawkins was forced to juggle his lineup because of final examinations that some of the players were scheduled to write within the next . few days.; Ken Patterson made his first ap- pearance in the lineup and fielded his: position faultlessly; Mait. Edgar Was brought in from the outfield and filled in at third and short; Jerry Holmes took over in right field and Ron Hugili -in centre field, : Bill Patterson and Huisser were others who played.
